The following materials should be uploaded as one document. Failure to upload all items will result in your application being unsubmitted.
1. Title Page
Provide a 150-word abstract. You should state, in nontechnical language, the purpose and major findings of your study. Please include the full title of your monograph.
2. Table of Contents
The Table of Contents for your monograph should list major divisions and headings in the monograph.
3. Dissertation Monograph
Submit a monograph based on your dissertation research using the following guidelines. The evaluation is made solely upon this monograph. Please include a short title of your monograph.
- The main portion of the monograph should be no longer than 40 typewritten pages in length, double-spaced, using 12-point or larger type size. If the applicant requires additional space in which to present details of a research instrument or to elaborate on some other vital point, an appendix of up to three additional pages may be attached. The Abstract Page, Table of Contents, and the References are not included in the page count. Monographs that exceed the maximum length will not be accepted.
4. References
Prepare using a reference consistent with English bibliographic format, such as American Psychological Association (APA) 7th edition style. To accommodate the blind review process, your own publications should not be cited in a way that will identity you as the author—substitute your name for the word Author in the citations (e.g., Author, 2015), and delete all identifying titles in the references (e.g., Author, Coauthor, & Coauthor, 2015).
